Conversion from long to short:

In this tutorial we will learn how to convert a long type value to short type value.

Description:

This program will take a long type value from console and provide the conversion to short type. The line long mylong = Long.parseLong(buffreader.readLine()); reads the long type value from console. The line short myshort = (short)(mylong); converts the mylong long type value to myshort short type value.

Code:

import java.io.*;

class longtoshort {
public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
// Reads the value from console
BufferedReader buffreader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
System.out.println("---Data Conversion from long type to short type---");
System.out.println("Enter long type value: ");
// Read long type data
long mylong = Long.parseLong(buffreader.readLine());
// Convert long type data to short type
short myshort = (short)(mylong);
System.out.println("Converted value from long type to short type is : " + myshort);
} 
catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println(" Error " + e);	
}
}
}
